colin Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Some times I find photo's seem stall when first posting, try going back and editting post click on 'add/remove attachments' then try adding photo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordThornber Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Hi Malc, if you tell us the process you're following, maybe we can help you get a pic on? There's nothing worse than someone saying "it's easy", yes it is, when you know how 8-) Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly this was my sentiments exactly! I have no problems postings pics elswhere - but whatever I do here - nothing seems to work. Tis frustrating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel B Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 ... whatever the picture is of, it's probably too big! 8-) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pelmetman Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Malcolm, Clive, can you email your pictures to someone else to post, or at least they might be able to see why there not uploading, not that I am a expert I've learn't more about this white mans magic (computers) since I've been on this forum than anywhere else :D To think I now run an internet based business *-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbarian Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I have been trying to put a pic of my MH in the box with my details, followed the instructions to the letter but it never works. My pic looks just like the ones other contributors have, I even cut out the background to reduce the size but still can't do it, given up for now. I will try again! :'( barbarian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordThornber Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Here's a nice easy start for you guys who need to resize pics. Yes there are easier ways I'm sure but this is pretty foolproof. After all, I can manage it :D http://www.shrinkpictures.com/ Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordThornber Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 You so also need to employ a degree of patience for when the pic is trying to load. That's one of the reasons we get so many double posts, folk too eager to prod the "submit" button rather than wait a few seconds. Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightrider Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 When I try to attach a pic and then submit it refuses to go and a red message comes up saying the pic is too big, only pics of 100kb will go. On my other two groups and facebook that I am on I have absolutely no probs in uploading pics, so why the probs on here? Mods look into it please. I did log onto that picture resizing forum that another member mentioned, but no joy there either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Newell Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 The answer is in your first sentence Malcolm, the picture exceeds 100KB. You need to resize it downwards till it is less than 100KB, I usually find reducing it to about 600x400 pixels works. D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest peter Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 See, it's easy. Here's another one. I take it you are clicking the 'add a file afer posting box'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tracker Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Try reducing the picture quality down to about 40kb or even less as the smaller the file the easier and quicker it goes? Good to see that Peter is as topical as ever - have we missed something or is Christmas in February in Lincolnshire these days Pete? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest peter Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 They're the only pic's I have on my computor. Appart from the ones of scantily clad ladies. Which I'm sure you wouldn't want to see, what with you dicky heart and all. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightrider Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 I feel like a failure not being able to upload pics, so easy on facebook and a couple of other groups I am on :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spospe Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Would it not be possible for the MODS to write a 'sticky' on the subject of loading pictures and 'pin' it to the start of each forum? Having such a handy help readilly available would be of great help to those not in the know. Like many things in life, loading pictures is easy-peasy when you know how. So come on MODS, how about it?

Guest peter Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Dave, right click one of my pic's and save it. Then try uploading it. If it doesn't work, it's something you are doing wrong. HTH. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
